Kendall Jenner has been granted a restraining order against a fan sending her threatening letters.

The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star has grown concerned in recent months after letters from Thomas Hummel began declaring his love for her before turning more aggressive, and a judge has ordered him to cease all contact and stay at least 100 yards away from her.

According to documents obtained by gossip website TMZ, Hummel branded the 21-year-old model "an internet w***e, cackling your way through life" in one letter.

He also referenced Kendall's boyfriend, US rapper A$AP Rocky, writing: "You look like you've been f***ing AHOLE Dog Sh**t in the sewer for years."

Another letter accused the brunette star's mother Kris Jenner of paying the 'L$D' hitmaker, or "AHOLE Rockhead" as Hummel calls him, to sleep with her daughter.

He was contacted by Kendall's security in March after writing letters professing his love for her but continued penning notes a couple of weeks later, and his tone had turned darker.

Hummel also references first falling for Kendall when he spotted her out and about at a Costco in 1998 and a post office in 2008, during which times she was three and 13 years old respectively.

Last August, Kendall testified against homeless man Shavaughn McKenzie following an incident where he accosted her in the grounds of her Hollywood Hills estate, but later admitted she "felt bad" for him.

Earlier this year, she said: "Is it like, weird of me though, that I feel bad for him?
